Been a long time Debian user but with the recent AI decision I am planning on moving on so anyone have an anti-AI recommendations? I understand its being used in the kernel as well but are there any distros taking a full anti-AI approach to the parts of the code they control?

Since folks seem a little confused on what I am referring to here is the mailing list page regarding the use of gen ai without disclosure vote: https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2026/08/msg00360.html

Phoronix article on it: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-Votes-Responsible-AI-Use

      Thanks, Scott, I’m glad you recognize my contribution. Your opinion, specifically, means a lot to me.

      Edit: you’ve had your account for four years, you’ve made a grand total of three comments, and one of them was to chastise me? A third of your Lemmy existence has been devoted to me… I’m touched.

        @Epp Wow you don’t care about my opinion so much you had to go digging through my profile to tally my lack of activity so you could attempt some kind of weak counter response.

        So on top of glazing AI, you’re also clearly not that bright.

          I clicked your name, curious why you used a seemingly real name - all of that info was immediately gleaned with a cursory glance.

          “Digging through my profile” - talk about not being that bright…
